The Late Queen and her Achievements
Princess Elizabeth was born at 17 Bruton Street in Mayfair, London, at 2.40 am on April 21,
1926. The Duke and Duchess of York, who eventually became King George VI and Queen
Elizabeth, had her as their first child. On May 29, of that year, the Princess was baptised
Elizabeth Alexandra Mary at Buckingham Palace. Princess Elizabeth's father, the Duke of York,
and her uncle, Edward, Prince of Wales, were ahead of her in the line of succession at the time of
her birth when King George V was still in power. Princess Margaret was born in 1930, giving
Princess Elizabeth a sister.

OP-ED, LEDX
India is a land where our scriptures, ancient texts and mythologies have endless references of sex workers. We are the land of Kamasutra and the land of Devadasis, yet the law of land that has made bodily autonomy a matter of taboo and policing for decades. After so many years of shame, shunning and exploitation, it is a welcoming decision from the apex court of the country, guaranteeing the human rights, dignity and protection that should have been afforded to the dingy lanes of sex work in this country. The journey ahead will be long and perilous but it is the first step that is often the hardest to make and with decision, we have done just that.
It is a pleasure to contribute to this edition of LedX Newsletter that talks of such a significant issue. Our newsletters have succeeded in going further ahead in knowledge enhancement and bringing perspectives and opportunities to students of law and I am sure, moving further we will be contributing to legal education more significantly.
TIPS AND TRICKS
TIPS FOR CONTRACT DRAFTING
In essence, contracts are forward-looking legal instruments. To record the terms of the agreement and perhaps avoid future disagreements, having a contract in writing is essential. When creating contracts, the aim should be to be as precise as possible such that there is only one interpretation that can be consistent with the intended meaning. Understanding a contract’s terms increases the likelihood that both parties will uphold it, and contracts with plain language are less likely to experience legal challenges.
